31 Mar What to Include in Your Bridesmaid Emergency Kit
Bridesmaids play a significant role before and during your wedding, and since they are typically those closest to you (close friends/family), it is important to think of them on your wedding day. Bridesmaids are partially responsible for planning and executing your dream wedding, so it is important to have solutions handy for any mishaps that may occur throughout the day. Keeping your bridesmaids happy and comfortable is essential because the day is also long and stressful for them. A great way to do this is to put together and pack a bridesmaid emergency kit for each one of your bridesmaids.
In the past, we’ve covered what to keep in your wedding day emergency kit, and while there are similarities, a bridesmaid emergency kit differs. You will need to make one for each one of your girls, and they will contain emergency items and some fun extras.
What Should Be in a Bridesmaid Emergency Kit?
A bridesmaid emergency kit should include everything needed to make it through the day comfortably while looking and feeling their best. This includes beauty essentials, first aid items, hygienic products, wardrobe essentials, and other items. While you don’t have to include everything in this list, it will help give you an idea of what to pack. You can always keep a more comprehensive emergency kit with your maid of honor in case of any additional mishaps.
